For that, he will always have a place in the hearts of Rays fans. But his trade to Seattle early Friday morning could help Tampa Bay's payroll/roster situation in 2025. [ IVY CEBALLO | Times ]

ST. PETERSBURG — Gut reaction to the overnight trade of Randy Arozarena:

Well, that stinks. When he was dialed in, he was as entertaining as any player in the game.

Thirty seconds later …

OK, good. Game on for 2025.

You see, the only way this trade works — and presumably more trades to come in the next 72 hours — is for the Rays to make corresponding moves in the offseason.
